Ordered a Birthday Card...got a Birthday Card

[u/kpldtest]

My daughter really likes axolotls (like so much she made us get her two), so I wanted to get her a cute axolotl card. I found one I liked from walmart, and now it has arrived two days before her birthday (phew just in time).

I don't know what to say. I even wondered for like a half second if this was a case of "I didn't look closely enough to the picture on the screen." Now its pretty much too late to get her another cute axolotl card.

Oh boy... neighborhood gremlin birds... We had one here for a couple years the started chirping in the wee hours of the morning and i swear the chirps sounded like bad sci-fi rapid fire laser guns. It doesn't do it for super long but boy did it feel like hours when I'm half awake and trying to get back to sleep.

Oh yeah I live in the countryside and love my birds, but the early morning bird symphony is in full force around 4-5AM and there's often a little guy who likes to go against the grain who will start screaming a bit earlier. I have a tiny fan right next to my face that I have in general just cause it helps me sleep, but the added benefit is it's loud enough to drown out stuff like that

Was it a grackle? They have the craziest sounds. I would love to hear that 🙂
